Taylor worked for 15 years in New York City and Los Angeles. Though he debuted as a feature film Director in Pretty Ugly People (2008), he was primarily an actor for most of his career, in films such as Winter's Bone (2010).
Taylor achieved mainstream success when he directed the film The Help (2011), based on Stockett's novel The Help. She gave him rights to make the film adaptation in June 2008, before the book was published.

Taylor directed Get on Up (2014), a biopic on the singer James Brown, starring Chadwick Boseman, which was released on August 1, 2014.
